Zakopane to Krakow, Bus Standard, FlixBus, Jul 7, 2026

Dean G

The trip was fine, departed on time but due to traffic arrived nearly 40 mins late. We made our train connection in Krakow with 2mins to spare. Traffic is not your fault but would have better to be more conservative about arrival times as we would have planned to take a later train. It was all fine in the end but rather stressful counting the minutes as we approached the bus station
